I've made significant changes to my Lists table, so if you want me to upload a more current version of my db, just let me know.

MoDementia wrote:I did a couple of additions and they were added to the lists table, but deletions are not removed from it

I noticed that but I thought I must have been doing something wrong again. But this is not a major problem for me because I use Bex's Remove Unused Genre/Classifications script as a part of my weekly db cleanup. However, it is a pain in the arse to go through alot of trouble to remove these from the Lists table to find they are still showing up in the Lists of the dropdown boxes. I have noticed that most, if not all, of the values are showing up both before and after the --More--, so I really would like it if they were only showing up once. Especially in the Moods Classification, the list is already long enough without adding more to it.

Obvously the SortOrder can be corrupted? so that is no longer in alpha order so the change listed above may need to be permanent.

PS This applies to all classification fields just depends how you have been using them as to whether the script works with them or not

Personally, I only want the active classifications to show and I would prefer whatever method would ensure the alpha sorting is permanent regardless of what I do to the db. I assume it is not possible to make this a user-definable option?

I tried downloading this installer, and it seems its trying to open it in my browser, I just get a page of funny looking characters. I tried right clicking and "Save Link As" but when I try to run the file it downloads it does nothing. All the other installers I got worked fine. Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you VERY MUCH for this script!! Now, for me, MediaMonkey is really starting to be absolute complete! And that's almost an impossible task, regarding all the little details and such each of us have to make it personal! It's amazing!!

That being said, I do have a couple of things to ask if it's possible to change..

I've enclosed a screenshot of how it looks like on my MediaMonkey.

What I would like to have changed / added:

1) I really don't like the bright blue color that's almost "headlining" this panel. Is it possible to change the color so it's perhaps gray like the top bar of MediaMonkey itself, or, even better for me (since the Artist - Title -info already is present), if someone could remove the line altogether. Perhaps just edit it, and upload it without further editing! It would be great! Thanks in advance!

2) Perhaps this is possible, but I haven't figured it out yet: If you see the tag "composer", you can see that the text is bold. Is it possible to make the text bold on all of the "tag-names" (not what's in the tags), even when field is on one line only!? Thanks!

3) I can't find an option/tag for "filename", just "path" (which includes filename). Possible to add so both path (without filename) and filename (without path) can be added? Thanks!

4) Possible to remove head-bars? I do think that the profile - dropdown bar, the "update properties" text, the "ok" button, and (since it's the only one left) the NP/S - button should be removed. I think these settings should only be visible in the Options / Custom Properties Panel - option. I can see the use for it -to be made easy, but for me it's a "display" -thing. Would it be possible to make an option in the options panel to click a box that says "show profile-box in panel", or something!? Thank, again..

5) In "Last Played", is it possible to separate the date and time with a comma (,)?

Well, I think that's about it..

Please, do NOT get me wrong!! This scripts is absolutely great, and thanks so much for the creators and all those who have helped!! This is just a request to make it more "my style", more personal, and more minimalistic, which fits my setup much better!!

@dypsisSorry somehow I missed your post See above post for it in action. Yes you can hide it from the view toolbar.Basically it allows you to create your own little properties panel rather than right click properties (shift+enter) all the time to change common fields.

@MonkeyBoneFirstly it looks like you haven't discovered skins yet?Most of them have a matching Monkey Rok Skin which this script takes advantage of to format the panel.There is a Guilded Monkey Rok skin hereIf you have Monkey rok installed, add this skin and select it, else save it to the ...scripts\properties panel\ dir over writing the temp.html and skin.css there

This should fix 1 and 2.

3.The script automatically reads the fields from the database, path and filename are not seperated, I might add filename as a read only option at some pointFrankly if you are going to change path/filenames I would prefer if you used the main properties window

4.Although it is also useful for displaying information the main purpose was to allow quick editing of common fields.Removing the header, even if optional, defaets the purpose a little. Again, I think if you find a skin that works for you the header is a lot less intrusive.

5. the date is exactly the same as the column in the main tracks window, It would need to be optional (I'm not keen on adding it atm) sorry

Glad you like it, thanks for the comments and suggestions. I don't have a lot of time to work on scripts atm but If I get the chance to add some "nice" stuff agin I will certainly take suggestions into account.

[EDIT] PS If you have a little html/css knowledge you can play around with the default skin. Files are in the directory listed above.

1/2) First of all.. No, I have not discovered skins yet.. Been quite happy with the default, actually, but I will check out the link you gave! Thanks!

3) It seems that I have a different purpose for this script than what you intended it to be, and thus: what it actually is.. I did not install this script to edit the fields, just to have them displayed! I wanted a script that could show more tag-information that what's already showing.. So, just wanted to see my tags displayed, not edit them.. Here's my thread that I started, and was directed to your script (of which I am quite happy)! viewtopic.php?f=2&t=34629

4) Again the editing-issue.. But, I will test the skins to see if the change of the color will ease my eyes.. hehe..

5) That's ok! Thanks anyway!

I have a tiny-tiny .html -knowledge from when I tried to edit my own homepage back in '97 or something.. But, I guess that experience is next to nothing right now.. Thanks for the tips, though!

One last question before I try the skin-settings.. Since my original purpose of installing this scripts was just to display (and not edit), is it possible to *disable* the edit-functions in this panel? Why? So I accidentally can't mess them up, and don't have the opportunity to.. I mean: If it's easy to make an "view-version" of this script.. I don't want you to do a lot for work for this (like, unless you really, really want to.. hehe)

And again: Yes! I like this script very much!! It's because of guys it's really cool to play music and have music collection! (I buy absolutely all of my CDs). Thank you very, very, humongous much!

Mo already mentioned trixmoto's MonkeyRok script to skin the CPP. If you have installed that, you might want to enable it and check out how much information you can get out of MonkeyRok. It's very customizable and it's one of my staple scripts; i.e. I wouldn't run MM without it. It might be just what you're looking for.

I just wanted to reply to why I was asking these questions.. I was told one thing, because of the simplicity of using the basic featured editing mode when it came to filenames.. but editing was not my purpose of the script.. But, thank you anyway!

I did install the MonkeyRok script, and that's amazing as well! And, was perhaps more the thing that I was looking for! Thanks again!

i need some help getting this set up. so far all i have been able to display is either the Custom fields of the Playlist checkboxes. when i navigate to the User Defined Panels dialogue box, the only Data Set i see is something called DDUD and the Field drop-down is empty. also in the Data Set field is a entry called New, but selecting that still doesn't give me any options in the Field drop-downs.
